Just wondering if there are any pass rushing DTs that might do well in his rookie year that I should look out for? Any Suhs...I know that's pretty rare. What about guys that might get 6-8 sacks his rookie year? Any all around guy that's equally good at both pass rushing and run stopping? Thanks.

How does Wolfe hold up against the run? I would presume poorly if he's slated as a 3rd-4th rounder at that size.

Not sure. I haven't watched any Cincy games so I have numbers only to go by. He has a lot of TFLs and a lot of tackles total so that would seem to bode well for him. Again, competition is a question. He did have 10 total tackles @Rutgers and none of them were sacks.

12/09/2011 - 2011 BIG EAST CONFERENCE CO-DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR: Derek Wolfe, DT, Cincinnati (Sr., Lisbon, Ohio) is the first Cincinnati player to be named BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year following a regular season in which he led the BIG EAST with 19.5 tackles for loss and had 9.5 sacks. He is the focal point of a Bearcat defense that limited opponents to just 92.7 rushing yards per game - good for second in the BIG EAST - and a league-low eight rushing touchdowns. - BIG EAST football

Still is probably the best but he plays a little too high.
Fletcher Cox will be an excellent pass rusher but can he hold the point of attack.
If Worthy has a solid post season, he could top this list. His upside is tremendous. All the talent in the world but where's the motor???

I don't think it's fair to say that this is a down DT class. It's not top-heavy by any stretch, but there are still potentially 10+ players that could be taken within the first 100 picks, and a lot of them we still have more to learn about. It very well may end up being a complete bust of a class, but it's a little too early to be sure.
